The WRASSLIN’ Thread

[Pennheel]

I got to watch Slammiversary up until the Speedball Bailey/Ali match then a bad connection ruined it for me. (Yay for getting a satellite instead Tommorow, but bummed about not finishing the show.

From what I watched,ABC beating the System had some fun spots and high flying stuff going on. Match was the best of what I was able to watch.

The 6 man between the Rascalz and the Catch Crew was cool if not for the fact that Wes Lee was a part of it. Not a bad match either. Very PPV quality compared to a couple I seen.

Jordynne Grace and Ash had me believe that Jordynne was going to drop the belt in the short time it was given. I guess NXT wants her to keep the belt as long as possible to build her up more. Looks like Rosemary's next in line.

The PCO/Francis hardcore match surprised me a little bit as long as you take it as a good fun hardcore match. Then you have the marriage proposal afterwards with Steph De Lander. Lol...

I didn't see Mike Bailey beat Ali and Nemeth win the six man elimination for the title. I thought that was going to Hendry, but maybe NXT has something in store for him against Ethan Page.

So I decided to give NXT another shot. Watched it last week and am watching again this week. I'm glad they ditched that awful NXT 2.0 nonsense. Need to fix the belt though. I prefer the old "Black and Gold" presentation. I don't care for Booker T on commentary so far.

The Rascalz looked great and the Joe Hendry entrance was a lot of fun.

All Ego was looking good. I am kind of surprised that they let him keep the Ego's Edge. But it looks much more in control than when Hernandez did it in TNA as the "Border Toss".

It occurred to me. The ratio of good matches to bad on NXT, isn't much better than an episode of Collision. The difference is WWE production and good vignettes. The latter is what makes TNA awesome at times, despite its financial shortcomings, and what AEW's is missing.

Since getting back into WWE over the last month or two I've not watched but a few minutes of Smackdown. However watching it this week LA Knight sounds almost like Stone Cold in not only his voice but his cadence in his promo's.

Skye Blue Recovering At Home After Suffering Injury On AEW Collision

Kyle Fletcher provides an update on Skye Blue.

Whenever she comes back,I'd like to see them build up a likely list of women to build towards the TBS belt. It's cool to see Britt challenge Mercedes, but start building some mid card ROH girls as challengers to the belt to come out and step up to Mercedes.

So Blood and Guts was insanity. The dang staple guns. Jeez

 

[UTK]

Blood and Guts was really fun. Plus got to see a few NJPW Legends I’d never thought I’d see in person in my life time. Glad I went.

 

[chavisut]

May vs Toni should open All In. The heat and story might be the best in AEW right now.

Speaking of heat, the eventual Hang v Swerve match will cook. Maybe Hangman vs Okada at All In?

All In is shaping up to be a great card.

Also, who had Double J as a babyface on their bingo card?

I'm jealous. That match with Jerhico amd Suzuki is one I'd tell stories about for years.

Darby vs Perry ought to be a banger as well.

 

[CagleMtnVol]

Finally got around to watching Raw last night thoughts on Liv Morgan in those Daisy Dukes?

Perry is thriving right now. I hope he retains at All In.

Saw a lot of hate about it online and I can kinda see why it might of been boring on tv but in person it was awesome lol

I thought it fit Suzuki's "murder grandpa" shtick to a tee. People love to hate on Jerhico right now. That isn't entirely undeserved. But I liked the match in general. The ending felt a little abrupt, would be my only complaint.

🫨 Those emoji say it all. As far as blood n guts..... I heard a lot of good things. The match itself and Kamille joining Mercedes and turning on Britt. I think "Timeless" Toni is retired from that gimmick come All In,and back to the Motley Crue rocker.A full babyface turn.

 

[Pennheel]

I don't really watch NJPW,but I'm watching it after Impact went off,and Takeshita just beat this guy named Tsuji in a hard hitting banger of a match in the G1 Climax tournament. I noticed several guys from AEW and the Forbidden Door. Some good wrestling on late for this insomiac to watch lol... N aito is wrestling a good match right now

The G1 is always entertaining. It leads into Wrestle Kingdom the same way the Rumble does for WWE and WrestleMania.

 

[knoxvol52]

SummerSlam is next Saturday, looking for a Finn Balor turning on the Judgement Day during Rhea vs Liv Morgan title match.

Dirty Dom stays true to his mommy..

Yeah,I'll have to remember that it comes on every Thursday at 10. If I don't catch it,I'll DVR it cause both matches were great stuff. I like the G1 format and see where the Bound for Glory idea came from.

@knoxvol52 I can see Finn turning on the Judgement Day and costing Damien the belt against Gunther. I'm interested as to where they go with Liv and Rhea.

Honestly cringe if yall want to but this is my favorite Jericho gimmick since the list. He plays old wrestler trying to hog the spotlight but being oblivious to it perfectly lol
